Cobalto nut
I'm missing one of my Cobalto nuts from my C-Record brakes. I know the replica stones are widely available on eBay, but does anyone have a source/idea for the nut itself? They're a rather unique shape.

Cobalto nuts should not be used on rides because the "stones" fall off. So if you get a real ones, save it for "show"
